  • Whistler bike park opening day! I was longing for the day and I must try 2 features I was most afraid of in the park, the first drop of Fade to Black and Crown Shoes Drop. I needed to get towed and there was a 10-year-old rider. Should I follow him or not?

    Great job shaking it off Yuka! With drops being so mental; it can be very tough to pick yourself up, gather it up, and send it again. Especially knowing you will need to go faster. Love the videos.

    Glad you got out of that ok, we were getting worried after no video last week. I also wear glasses and the best solution I've found is actually a pair of perscription safety glasses with transition lenses, they provide better protection than most riding glasses, have my perscription lenses, and also transition so double as sunglasses when it's bright out.

    Yu-can-do-it! Drops for lighter riders can be a bit of an issue because you don't keep you're momentum and speed as much, so then you can stall out and case... just give a few extra pedal strokes just like you did! :)
    I'm unsure if you do want to see what you are ridding but if you do, a good pair of sport glasses like Rudy's is a good idea. You can have lenses made for them or wear with contacts... just don't lose them, they're expensive :P

    @Yuka - I ski and MTB. I am also slightly short sighted to the extent that I often don't wear my glasses out and about. But even then I wear 1-day contact lenses when out skiing/MTBing. You don't realise how bad you miss the sharp vision especially if you are riding through forests with dappled shade and at speed. It also means you can wear your "normal" sunglasses or goggles as needed.
